SALADO Hood Kit
for Jimny JB74 / JC74
URNIETA SALADO Hood Kit is engineered for Jimny JB74 / JC74, combining Weight Reduction, Functional Venting, and Factory Fitment with design-led fitment and high-end build quality.
Why this part
exists.
Front-axle balance and heat management drive this single-piece aluminum hood: 65% lighter than OEM steel, vented, and direct-fit for JB74/JC74.
The OEM steel hood is a durability choice, suited to work environments where parts take impact and replacement is not immediate. The design tension appears when the Jimny's front end is made heavier with bumper, winch, and skid protection. The hood sits forward of the axle, so its mass directly affects balance, ride compliance, and recovery behavior. The Salado Hood offsets that load through a single-piece aluminum panel that is 65% lighter than OEM while retaining factory hinge, latch, prop, and body geometry. The vents are not decorative cuts; they use the hood surface as a thermal exit path. Aluminum's higher heat conductivity and formed intake geometry help release engine-bay heat during slow climbs, desert convoys, and sustained off-road load.
